Abstract

Pyrolysis of raw propane-butane mixture at 500–800°C in helium atmosphere in a quartz flow reactor was studied in the presence and in the absence of disperse silica packing. Under the conditions excluding radical chain propagation, the process was found to occur as catalytic decomposition of the initial hydrocarbons over silica surface.
